Why we don’t clean area rugs in homes.
Good morning!
At Classic Care, we prioritize the proper care of your area rugs, which is why we don't clean them in homes or with wall-to-wall carpet cleaning equipment. Here's why:
1. Construction Differences:
Wall-to-Wall Carpets: Have a plastic backing suitable for top vacuuming.
Area Rugs: Feature tightly woven foundations that trap dirt, requiring specialized dusting equipment like our badger, which isn't usable in homes.
2. Dirt Removal:
Carpet cleaning tools clean surface fibers, but area rugs need deep cleaning to remove embedded dirt. Improper cleaning mixes dirt with water and cleaning agents, forming a plaster-like substance that damages fibers.
3. Heat Sensitivity:
High heat from carpet cleaners can damage the fibers and dyes of area rugs, especially wool.
4. Drying Time:
Quick drying prevents mold and mildew. Our facilities ensure rapid drying with centrifuges and hanging racks with fans.
5. Chemical Use:
Cleaning chemistry for nylon carpets differs from what's safe for natural fiber rugs. Using the wrong products can harm your rugs.
6. Safety and Cleanliness:
Cleaning area rugs in place can damage your flooring and carpet. Our specialized equipment and controlled environment ensure safe, thorough cleaning.
